The quality of the writing of The Good Wife is amazing. I only regret not downloading it sooner.
I don't know whether I would have managed to get into Homicide as much as I did had I not watched the Wire before-more specifically, whether I would have given up after a few episodes, because a lot of aspects of it (the grainy film, the slower pace) are harder to get hooked on than most shows. The Wire had higher production values, but the same type of slow, atypical for TV storytelling, so I stuck with Homicide knowing that the payoff would be worth it.
I've seen the Adena Watson storyline in S1, but I know she's a recurring theme of the series. I thought it was a very gutsy move to keep the case unsolved (like the RL murder it was based it).
